Springfield, MA, March

Entrepreneurship (NACCE), the nation’s leading organization
focused on promoting entrepreneurship through community colleges, is asking experts in entrepreneurship to
submit proposals for presentations for the organization’s 11th Anniversary
Conference, to be held October 13-16, 2012 in Charlotte, NC. NACCE is looking
for engaging presenters and content that successfully ties into the conference
theme: Fueling the Global Economic Engine.

Proposals for dynamic, compelling, and
interactive sessions are sought with content for the beginner, intermediate,
and advanced levels. "When
it comes to the best ideas and getting results, community colleges are more
often than not, the answer,” said NACCE Executive Director Heather Van Sickle.
"We need presenters with strategies and solutions in entrepreneurship to make
this, our 11th conference, worthy of an event that marks the start
of our second decade of promoting entrepreneurship education as an effective
tool for economic growth.”

This year’s
conference tracks will focus on the five action steps that make up NACCE’s
Presidents for Entrepreneurship Pledge. "These
are actions that we believe are crucial for community colleges to advance
entrepreneurship in their communities,” said Van Sickle.
